Summary: They RUINED a great book/ending
Review: This movie was based on a book I read back in the early 90's or late 80's. And that book had one of the BEST book endings of all times! Unfortunately the director, for some unfathomable reason, COMPLETELY changed and RUINED the ending. If you can find the original book get it and read it (I unfortunately gave my copy to someone and never got it back and have been unsuccessful in finding it in ANY bookstore). Do yourself a favor - pass on this movie. In the book the characters are lead to believe an incorrect explanaition for what they found. Then in about a page and a half, the author provides a surprise ending that is a WHOLLOP of a great suprise ending! Again - take a pass on this movie.

Summary: EXCELLENT FILM
Review: Well made religious thriller, I loved the ending. Antonio stars as a priest whom is called to investigate an archeological find, apparantly they have found Jesus body. Very good and was pleased to see Jesus being well spoken of instead of venerated and blasphemed as Hollywood usually does.
